Out of alignment you say? Noooo....(incredulously)

So I always knew its bad to run over the curb on those pesky right turns. I know, okay. But its either curbs or puppies, and I'm not entirely heartless.

So its bad, yes, but I didn't know it was $100 worth of bad. So an alignment for my car went from around $80 to about $180. Plus new wipers, which I'm pretty sure I was scammed on. They charged me for two sets because each side was a different side. Yeah, whatever, even the guy who rung up the final bill thought it was a bit off. I was tired, I didn't argue. I should know more about my car so stuff like that doesn't happen. I should also use the mechanic I trust instead of going to Sears, but I knew it would take awhile and I wanted to shop around the mall a bit. On the upside, my car now drives straight without me turning the wheel to the left.

I just finished editing my paper for class, which will be peer reviewed again on Monday. Oh by the way, I won't be in class on Monday so I had to email it to my partners to turn in. Time to run a load of laundry so I can pack for the trip. I hate San Antonio. Please don't make me go again.

  1. You would do the world and the puppy a favor by running over the puppy.

    Yes you likely got scammed on the wipers... They charge like $25 or more for a set of wipers that will cost you $8 tops at wally world. Not to mention labor. Give SVU a call girly cuz you just got ASS RAPED.

    So you're coming to my neck of the woods eh? Heh, I don't blame you for hating SA but I bet it's more exciting than "turd burp end of the universe" as you put it.

  2. Turd Burp End of the Universe actually applies to all of Texass, to be honest. I know, I should've just figured out how to put them on myself, but I didn't feel like it.

  3. LoL! You and my parents are in agreement, they can't wait to get out of San Antonio. Of course they just don't like texas in general...
